Barkway rests in the gentle embrace of the Hertfordshire countryside. It lies 5.7 km south-south-east of Royston (from Royston: bearing 155°T, OS grid TL 384 356), and is situated west-north-west of Nuthampstead village. The ancient parish church of St. Mary and St. Faith, with its proud tower, offers a quiet sentinel over the village, its stone warmed by the sun. The fields that surround Barkway often possess a pale, chalky quality, hinting at the underlying geology and catching the light in subtle ways. A sense of enduring continuity pervades its lanes, where the echoes of past lives seem to mingle with the rustle of leaves.
